Definitions

  • the filter media comprises a multi-layer construction
  • the multi-layer construction comprises a first sorbent layer configured to adsorb the organic vapor from the gas, a second sorbent layer directly adjacent to the first sorbent layer and configured to adsorb the organic vapor from the gas medium, wherein the second sorbent layer is closer in proximity to the gas outlet than the first sorbent layer, and a sensing element adjacent to the first and second sorbent layers such that an indicating element of the sensing element is located at the interface between the first and second sorbent layers, , at a location within the filter cartridge such that the sensing element is configured to indicate when an adsorption wavefront containing an organic vapor contaminant reaches the interface between first and the second sorbent layers.
  • the sensing element may be located anywhere within the filter cartridge as long at least a portion is present at the interface between the first and second sorbent layers, in some embodiments it may be desirable that the sensing element be located on the wall of the sealed filter cartridge housing. In this way the sensing element signal, either optical or electronic, is readily transmitted to the user. In some embodiments with colorimetric sensing elements, the colorimetric sensing element is located on the wall of the sealed filter cartridge housing directly adjacent to a window or other viewing device.
